As Smiley (from wherever he's been hiding) states it is only up there for the week until the next show replaces it on Sunday
You can't really download a real audio stream, but you can record it. I use a program called Audio Hi-Jack on the Mac, it records from within Real Player. But this still wouldn't be as good a quality as that recorded from DAB, satelite or cable. And considering the show will be repeated on Friday night it's still possible to get it recorded. Unless like me you're working, or like the lucky sods who are all going to Italy. (thanks for reminding me of that Pete!)

when 'saving target as' it is not pos to do that...it brings a box up with the details of the source....i think ancodia's right about how to save it, right?

tried to do it for my dad as well as he was on radio dj'ing a northern soul session...the guys at the station put it on their site and saved it as a ASX file...again another unfriendly windows/real player file right?

actually my granny tells me his last historic walk was when 808 last played!

He was walking through manchester about 2 years ago, whilst staying at the castlefield hotel, he was dribbled and spat on by a certain disabled guy callin himself scruffy penis. He then made his way to some sort of street festival off oldham street, where there were loads of unsigned bands playing, unfortunately he couldn't get through the crowd as they were crying out for 808 state, unfortunately poor fred past away whilst waiting for their next album due in 2008!
